Other Functions

Field of View Orientation

When you try to put your target celestial object in the center of the eyepiece's field of view on your
telescope at high magnification, you may occasionally move the telescope in an opposite direction
due to a misleading orientation in the eyepiece's field of view whe n you use a mirror diagonal, for
example. This feature allows you to instantly reverse the direction of the direction keys.
Pressing the RA Reverse button will turn up the brightness of the button itself and allows you to
reverse the direction of the RA so that you can change the tracking orientation in the field of view
to an opposite direction. Press the RA Reverse button again to return the tracking to the original
direction.
Pressing the DEC Reverse button will turn up the brightness of the button itself and allows you to
reverse the direction of the DEC so that you can change the tracking orientation in the field of view
to an opposite direction. Press the DEC Reverse button again to return the tracking to the original
direction.
